Baby oil is not merely to be used by babies and people with sensitive skin. You can use baby oil as an eye-makeup remover. It can be used also while you shave. Just slather some baby oil and you are set to shave your legs/arms. Another helpful hack is that it can also be used for cleaning makeup brushes, as the oil acts as a conditioner for your brushes.

This piece of item is multi-functionality at its finest.

Petroleum Jelly

This easy-on-your-pocket product is a multitasking miracle. Just dab a bit of Vaseline jelly on your cheekbones for your skin to have a dewy finish. Apply a little amount to moisturize and apply over split ends. But be careful with the amount! Too much of it can turn you hair into a greasy mess.

Having a problem in removing eye lash glue? Apply some petroleum jelly into your lash line with a cotton swab. Wait a few minutes and then carefully peel away. It can even be used as a mascara – just dab a bit of petroleum jelly on your fingers, run them horizontally across the tips of your lashes. Run a bit on your brows to keep them in order too.

Red Lipstick

Who would have thought that the good old red lipstick which every woman owns could be a solution to your dark circles?

Apply a bit of lipstick with a brush, then cover it with your regular foundation. It’s a fun beauty hack to know, especially if you run out of your concealer.

Anyway a red lipstick can make your ordinary plain dress into a fab evening wear.

Lip Stain/Lip Gloss

Lip Stains can stain both lips and cheeks. Just apply 2-3 dots of the stain on the apples of your cheeks and blend immediately.

It can act as a eye shadow too, just apply 1-2 drops on your eye lids and voila you are good to go!

Eye-shadow/Eyeliner

Your eye-shadows can also be used as eyeliner. Yes, you heard that right! Just wet a brush first, then dip it in the eye-shadow and apply it on your eye.

Also eye-shadow in hues of brown and black can also be used as eyebrow pencil. And lastly, the colourful eye-shadows can act as blush and can help contouring the face.
